Conserve More Energy With Appliances!!!

by Renee
(Charlotte, NC)

One of the best ways I think folks can become more green is by saving energy when it comes to household appliances. Unplug appliances like the toaster, computer, etc. when not in use. Plan a laundry day once a week & only wash full loads(with only cold water if you can). Turn off lights in rooms that no one's in. These simple changes of routine can make a huge difference in the long run when it comes to carbon emissions & the electric bill!

This is great advice; most people don't even think of the simplest ways to cut energy costs like this.

Here is another tip: after your dishwasher finishes its cycles and starts to dry, turn it off, prop the door open, blot excess water from the things on the upper shelf and then let it all air dry. This saves money!
